"Our name is changing but our firm's commitment to justice is not," said Bluestein. "Our eight attorneys will continue offering the quality legal services on which our clients have come to rely."

The firm name is changing because founding partner John Nichols has agreed to serve the Supreme Court of South Carolina as Chief Disciplinary Counsel. Also, partner John Delgado is joining the practice of former U.S. Attorney Bill Nettles.

"We maintain deep personal friendships with John and John and know they will do wonderfully in their new ventures," said Thompson.

The firm has been recognized by US News and World Report as a Best Law Firm for Appellate Practice, Workers' Compensation (Claimants), and Criminal Defense (white collar and general defense). Among many other honors and recognitions, it was named Solo and Small Firm Law Firm of the Year by the South Carolina Bar in 2015.

"We are extraordinarily proud of the services we have provided over the past seventeen years and we will continue to build upon the firm's heritage of advocating for injured and disabled South Carolinians," said Sullivan.
